About this title

Synopsis

Helping separated and divorced parents focus on the one goal they need to share—the care of their children—this book encourages them to make the most of the changes in their lives, rather than living with bitterness or regret. Addressed are issues such as learning to coparent while living apart, forming new relationships, and understanding the pressures on children. Also discussed are the importance of fathers' contributions to children's lives; how to successfully blend families and assume new and unexpected roles, such as stepmother or stepfather; and how parents can learn to move forward with their lives in a positive way.
